Outsource Towing Dispatch Answering Services

[Adam Harris]

Towing businesses operate in high pressure situations. When someone calls a tow company, they are usually stranded, stressed, or dealing with an accident or breakdown. They need a calm voice on the phone and fast action. If no one answers or if the caller is kept waiting for too long, they will quickly look for another tow company.

Many towing companies are small operations where the same people who drive the trucks are also answering the phone. This can lead to missed calls while the driver is on the road or busy connecting a vehicle. Over time, these missed calls add up to lost revenue and poor reputation.

A towing dispatch answering service solves this by providing a dedicated team that is always ready to take calls. Some key advantages include

1. Live call answering around the clock, including nights, weekends, and holidays

2. Immediate collection of location details, vehicle type, and issue description from the customer

3. Fast communication with the nearest available tow truck or driver

4. Ability to handle both emergency calls and scheduled tow requests

5. Organized logs of jobs completed, pending calls, and repeat customers

A good towing dispatch team is trained to remain calm, speak clearly, and give realistic time estimates based on your operation. They can also prioritize urgent situations and work with your drivers to optimize routes and reduce response times.

In addition to handling private customers, a professional dispatch team can help you manage calls from insurance companies, auto repair shops, dealerships, parking lots, and law enforcement contracts. Having a reliable call answering setup makes your business more attractive to these partners.
